Colorado Floods
Colorado just experienced the worst flooding in recorded history.
I was lucky. I live up on a hill, almost 1000 feet above Castle Rock. I stayed dry. A lot of Castle Rock wasn’t as fortunate.
We in Colorado will be doing a lot of digging out for a long time, with hundreds of miles of roads washed out.
If you want to make a donation to The Great Colorado Flood Relief Project, you can click here.
If you make a donation, let me know, and I’ll email you the Prologue from my upcoming novel, Frag Order, a spin-off of the Hamfist seriess, as my way of saying “Thanks!”.
Thanks!

Hamfist Sequel Is Under Way!
Hamfist Out, the sequel to the Hamfist Trilogy, is now in development. The story line follows Hamfist after he returns from his second Southeast Asia tour, with his assignment to Kadena Air Base, in Okinawa.
Progress has been steady, and I expect to publish Hamfist Out in another two months. I’ll tell the world when it’s out, and you can track the book’s progress on this website. In the meantime, here’s a sample chapter to whet your appetite, and thanks for your support and patience!
